Pueblo, Colorado – November 28, 2017 /MarketersMedia/ —

According to the United States Department of Energy, home heating and cooling costs account for almost 50 percent of a homeowner’s energy expenses every month. Fortunately there are numerous ways a homeowner can reduce the cost of home Heating in Pueblo, Colorado. Now is the time to begin making these changes in the home, however, before the cold weather truly hits. December tends to be the coldest month in the area, according to CurrentResults.com, thus homeowners need to act quickly to ensure these measures are in place.

“Replace any weatherstripping that is worn or broken down, as a home loses a great deal of energy around doors and windows. The cost of replacing this essential item is minimal, yet it can help to prevent heat loss in these areas. Furthermore, when weatherstripping is inadequate in a home, the home’s heating system must work harder. The additional stress on the unit can lead to the need for it to be replaced sooner, and no homeowner wishes this,” R. Patterson, spokesperson for Patterson Plumbing & Heating, Inc., explains.

Insulation not only makes the home more livable, it also minimizes the transfer of heat. In addition, it is the most cost-effective way to reduce a home’s heating and cooling bills, yet many homeowners overlook this simple fix when they notice their energy bills are getting higher. When examining the insulation, homeowners need to look for leaky ducts and any areas of the home where warm air may be leaking out.

“Cable TV is a great thing to have in the home, yet where the cable wires enter the home can be an issue. The hole where the wire comes into the residence may be allowing cold air to seep in and hot air to escape. Take the time to thoroughly examine the home for problem areas such as this and fix them. Doing so can help to significantly reduce one’s heating bill and will allow the insulation to better do its job,” Patterson continues.

Checking the home for areas where warm air may escape isn’t the only thing homeowners need to do in preparation for the winter months. Drain cleaning in Pueblo, Colorado should be carried out to ensure the drains are ready for the drop in temperatures and the coming weather. The setting on the hot water heater ought to be moved back a few degrees, and insulate the tank, if this type of water heater is installed.
